The look also incorporated a very personal touch: lace edgings from Henson\u2019s great-great-grandmother\u2019s veil from around 1880. The intricate embroidery also has the couple\u2019s wedding date and initials hidden in the design. The neckline and cuffs of the new Duchess\u2019s three-quarter-length sleeved dress were trimmed with scalloped lace. If the dress\u2019s detachable 6-foot train wasn\u2019t dramatic enough, the back of the gown also featured a dropped waistline and a large keyhole opening closed with a button at the top.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image may contain Clothing Dress Formal Wear Fashion Gown Wedding Wedding Gown Person City Suit and Plant\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/media.vanityfair.com\/photos\/66632dafbf589be942673fa7\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/2156509492\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.vanityfair.com\/photos\/66632dafbf589be942673fa7\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/2156509492 120w, https:\/\/media.vanityfair.com\/photos\/66632dafbf589be942673fa7\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/2156509492 240w, https:\/\/media.vanityfair.com\/photos\/66632dafbf589be942673fa7\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/2156509492 320w, https:\/\/media.vanityfair.com\/photos\/66632dafbf589be942673fa7\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/2156509492 640w, https:\/\/media.vanityfair.com\/photos\/66632dafbf589be942673fa7\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/2156509492 960w, https:\/\/media.vanityfair.com\/photos\/66632dafbf589be942673fa7\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/2156509492 1280w, https:\/\/media.vanityfair.com\/photos\/66632dafbf589be942673fa7\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/2156509492 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/noscript><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionText-bHjzlu iUEiRd eurnFY iXWezO caption__text\">Rupert Henson and Olivia Henson at the wedding of The Duke of Westminster and Miss Olivia Henson at Chester Cathedral on June 07, 2024 in Chester, England.<\/span><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd bCPQcu fNaHcW caption__credit\">Samir Hussein<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Henson donned a Grosvenor family heirloom on her big day as well, wearing the <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/www.thecourtjeweller.com\/2015\/05\/the-faberge-myrtle-wreath-tiara.html\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.thecourtjeweller.com\/2015\/05\/the-faberge-myrtle-wreath-tiara.html&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thecourtjeweller.com\/2015\/05\/the-faberge-myrtle-wreath-tiara.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Faberg\u00e9 Myrtle Leaf Tiara<\/a>, which dates back to 1906.
